This dihedral problem begins near the road.  Move up and right. Fun climbing!

Asbestos Corner

Shothole Number One

Chip the Crack

Ford Fairmont Futura

Arete

Unnamed V4

Ford Fairmont Left

Roadside Arete

The line that follows the highest point of the boulder. Pretty straight forward problem with drilled-out pockets here and there on both sides of the arete. Crux a bit higher than halfway up, then eases up to juggy top out. One bolt on top in good condition.

The landing zone is sorta bad so an R rating is probably accurate. Definitely not an X rating (like the upper part of the Monolith  boulder).

Follows a fun crack with drilled finger pockets up the middle of the boulder. A single bolt provides an option to protect the airy top-out.

Runs up the arete on the north side of the third, or farthest up canyon boulder. Lots of smearing and balancy moves.  There's a constant feeling that you are going to barn door on this thing.

Not sure if I am truly the first ascent on this thing seeing how this is LCC and pretty much everything has been climbed, especially something this easily accessible. However there was no chalk and no sign of anyone doing it before.  If anyone has any info on this I'd be more than happy to update the name, FA, etc.

This is on the middle boulder, and it is the only worthy arete. Short

The face just left of the shot hole #1 arête (V2)

Unnamed problem that uses the arête with you right hand and the four shot holes up the face with your left.  Stand start and throw left to the first shot hole.  Slap the arête with your right and then throw to the next shot hole.  First half is pretty easy.  Use the undercling with your left, slap the arête with your right, get a high left foot and throw for the third shothole.  From here on up felt like the crux.  Smear as high as you can and either hit the fourth shot hole or the undercling/side pull.  Good topout (there's a bolt on top if ya need to toprope it).

The only downside is that the face is pretty dirty.  Will hopefully clean up with more traffic.  With the arête off, I'm sure it would be a lot harder!

Climbs the left side of the NE arete. Start has a strong and tricky barn door effect leading into a few fun and easier moves at the top.

Climb the N side of NW arete on the roadside boulder. Fight the barn door to the top.

BB has this at V2, but several I’ve talked to have it at V4. It’s certainly harder than Ford Fairmont V4 to the left.
